Thanks for putting this up Randy. I was living in the TB area at the time it was produced. Those creamsicles and the name bring up a lot of memories for me.

After one of many losses, a reporter asked him how he felt about the execution of the offensive line. He answered, "I'm all for it!"

Wasnt McKay the grueling coach who had players going to the bathroom at practice and not coming back cuz it was too hard on them?

If they would have beat the Rams in the NFC title game in 1979 the Steelers would have beat them something like 35-0 in Super Bowl 14.
